Klug zu reden ist doch schwer, klug zu schweigen noch viel mehr

Top on the right, that's my office window. I've featured the view from there before, and I even shared the story of the time that they painted it shut. However, this is the first time that I've featured the view from the other side, so feel yourself privileged!

I have a quiz question and a question question today. First the quiz question:

Find the commonality:

• one television;
• one VCR;
• one digital set top box;
• three pairs of sunglasses;
• one pair of eyeglasses;
• one Personal Computer.

First one to get that one wins a pat on the back.

Now to the question question. Jen and I have been arguing about a matter of some import for the last few days, and I thought that I'd throw in out to the mob to resolve. It concerns a well known ditty about a certain spider who climbs up a water spout, some rain, a fall, and then a totally unsatisfactory denouement from the spider's point of view. The question though concerns this spider's name. We are both very certain that we are right, yet we disagree. I know what Google thinks (it think's I'm right, of course), but I want to know what you reckon. So, kif you know what I'm talking about, please share in the comments!
